What's up, Dear Listeners...thanks for coming back to listen to Mountain Mirrors so often...and supporting my Myspace page the way you do.
It means a lot to me.
It means a lot to me.
Why this name?
I was in a world of sh*** a few years ago...I remember driving through the white mountains in New Hampshire and feeling a new sense of hope. I thought of the name Mountain Mirrors as a song title...but it makes a decent band name, I think.
Do you play live?
This is currently a studio project, as the guest musicians on my cds are from everywhere from Ireland to Israel to California.
But I get so many requests from people via our Myspace page who want to see us live, I'll admit the fever is growing...if it's meant to be, it will happen.

How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It's awesome for me, because I get bored with bands quickly and the internet allows me to feed my head with new music constantly.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
I'm probably a little too old and much too unsightly for a major label to sign. It's probably for the best.
I also give too much music away for a label. They'd sh*** themselves. lol

Band History:
Re-printed from the Magnatune website :
Imagine Nick Drake, Pink Floyd, and Opeth jamming under a deep woods full moon, and you'll start to get a glimpse into Mountain Mirrors, the psych folk/rock project of multi-instrumentalist Jeff Sanders.
Sanders honed his guitar chops in the 80's jamming in metal/punk jam bands Shared Psychosis and Your Dirge, and blending original instrumental music with Black Sabbath, Metallica, and Slayer. As his tastes broadened, however, he began bringing in folk influences such as Nick Drake and Damien Rice, and creating the hypnotic folk-rock for which he is known today. It's this melodic yet mesmerizing sound that Sanders uses to explore issues of spirituality. Although his music expresses a deep yearning for enlightenment, it's Sanders' willingness to examine the eerie, lonely side of this quest that makes his music so powerful.
Though these dark, even spooky influences are definitely felt throughout his work, Sanders' music also contains a deep vein of introspection that keep it from being menacing.
Says Local Vertical about Mountain Mirrors, "Mesmerizing, mysterious, deep-thought provoking, melodic, mind-blowing. Simply awesome...and very highly recommended!".

Favorite spot?
North Conway, New Hampshire. Anywhere there's a trail through the woods is cool by me...by a stream is even better.
